Baboon Savagely Attacks One-Year-Old Over Doll

A baboon has attacked a year old girl in Victoria fall, Zambia, in an attempt to drag a doll from her.
Narrating the incident, the mother of the child, Jean Gama, said she did not believe the girl would survive the vicious attack by the usually friendly primate a fortnight ago, which left her with huge scars on her head and face, reports iHarare.

The mother said,“My daughter was playing outside the house with her 12-year-old brother, while I prepared breakfast for them around 9am.

The mother said,

“My daughter was playing outside the house with her 12-year-old brother, while I prepared breakfast for them around 9am.

“Suddenly I heard her scream like someone who was in severe pain.

“I rushed outside and found the baboon had sunk its teeth on her scalp and face.I hit it with a huge stone and that’s when it finally loosened its grip on her before fleeing.

“Apparently the baboon wanted to take away my daughter’s doll. The baboon’s teeth penetrated her skull and I don’t know what it means for her health as she grows up.”
